Jack Grealish and Declan Rice react to Liverpool target Adam Wharton’s England debut
Crystal Palace signed Adam Wharton in a £22 million deal in January 2024 (Sky Sports).
The 20-year-old has since proved to be one of the signings of the year. He has been unbelievable for the Eagles and has rightly earned a senior England call-up.
In the game against Bosnia on Monday night, Wharton made his debut for the Three Lions after Gareth Southgate brought him off the bench in the second half.
Wharton looked so comfortable in the middle of the park, and his chances of making the final Euros squad have surely increased now.
The youngster took to Instagram after the game to celebrate his debut and the 3-0 win. Wharton received a lot of love from his teammates in the comments below.

Chelsea’s Conor Gallagher wrote: “Congrats mate!”

Liverpool are eyeing a summer move for Wharton
Wharton only joined Crystal Palace in January 2024, but he is already a wanted man following a bunch of truly impressive performances.
TBR Football exclusively revealed in May that Liverpool are keeping an eye on the talented young midfielder ahead of the summer transfer window.
Fellow Premier League clubs Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United are all admirers of Wharton, as are Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund and Juventus.
Crystal Palace publicly claim that they want to keep hold of Wharton, but TBR can reveal that Eagles Chairman ‘Steve Parish would ‘find it very hard’ to reject a deal that could see them more than double their money for a player in just six months’.
It will be interesting to see if Wharton will be on the move this summer, but everyone can tell that he’s destined to join a big club one day.
